Ayoub,

130 million girls didn’t go to school today. Not because they didn’t want to, but because they weren’t given the chance.

It’s really easy to join in. Just choose a number between 1 and 130,000,000, check it’s still available, then film yourself counting your number. Or add a photo of yourself with your number if you prefer.

Your count will become part of what could be the world’s longest film. If we get all the way to 130 million it will take eight years to watch. We’ll deliver it to leaders, and demand they come together and act.

And she could help lift her family — and her entire country — out of poverty.

This International Women's Day, stand with girls everywhere.

Choose your number. Add your voice. Because a girl with an education is a girl who can change the world.

ENDING CHILD MARRIAGE

By 2020, 140 million girls around the world will become child brides. Another shocking fact: in sub-Saharan Africa, more than one third of girl children are married by their 18th birthday. These girls are often taken from their friends, and their family....
